San Antonio: At least we’re not as fat as Miami

San Antonio has once again ended up in Men’s Fitness magazine‘s annual lists of the Top 10 Fittest and Fattest Cities in America (guess which list we’re on?) in the February 2009 issue, which hits newsstands on Monday.

At least we’re not the No. 1 fattest city, though. That honor belongs to Miami. Oklahoma City is second. San Antonio is third. We’re No. 3! We’re No. 3!

Let’s look at the positive side: We were third last year, too. At least we haven’t gotten even fatter.

Salt Lake City is the fittest city, according to the magazine, with Colorado Springs, Colo. and Minneapolis at No. 2 and No. 3, respectively.

The magazine surveys the top 50 cities across the country and looks at factors such as sports participation, TV viewing, number of overweight residents, air quality, access to fitness centers and health care, and governmental obesity initiatives.
